NAFSA serves the needs of more than 10,000 members and international educators worldwide at more than 3,500 institutions, in more than 160 countries. Dedicated to international educational interchange, it provides a platform in which university scholars and staff can seek cooperation and exchange best practices. NAFSA held its 75th annual conference in Washington DC, with more than 8.500 active participants that promoted their educational companies or institutions  and that joined the more than 100 academic and professional panels that took place at the Convention Centre over a four-day period.
